Software Engineer (Frameworks)

• Write and maintain clean, high-quality, efficient, and well-tested code that aligns with project specifications
• Design and implement the abstractions that bridge the gap between software engineering and DevOps
• Talk to the engineers who use the platform, find where they lose time, and help turn that into prioritized work
• Partner with Product and Engineering counterparts to build tooling that teams actually adopt
• Develop and maintain technical documentation that helps engineers self-serve
• Use AI-assisted tooling and automation workflows to improve developer productivity, accelerate troubleshooting, and strengthen platform reliability
• Key Collaborators:
• Engineering
• DevOps
• Product Management

Benefits

• Impactful Work: Have a direct impact on product and culture

• Employee-Led Communities: Parents@Tulip, Hey Lady, Allies@Tulip and more- You’re eager to use AI-assisted development tools to move faster, improve the developer experience, and make the platform more reliable
• You’re an engineer at heart who finds joy in building the software that other software runs on — and you think about that software like a product
• Your customers happen to be other engineers, so you care about how the platform feels to use, not just whether it works
• You believe a platform should be a set of robust, resilient, and intuitive libraries rather than a collection of scripts, and you’re curious about where people get stuck and why
• 3+ years of software engineering experience building and shipping complex backend systems
• A product mindset toward internal tooling — you seek out feedback from the engineers using what you build and iterate on it
• Strong skills in at least one modern backend programming language
• Solid understanding of cloud native or cloud hybrid solutions
• Working knowledge of relational and non-relational databases
• Comfort using AI-powered engineering tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or similar) in your day-to-day workflow
• Familiarity with our tech stack — Node.js, Go, TypeScript, React, RabbitMQ, MongoDB, Postgres, AWS
• Prior experience developing tools that improve the developer experience
• Experience building CI/CD pipelines and working with containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes)
• Side projects or personal builds where you owned something end to end, from idea to real users
